"Thanks for being so nice. The next time you get a free moment, call me.
I would love to talk to you at any time. Sincerely". Jack Valenti
(1921-2007) mounted successful advertising campaigns for US oil companies
before meeting US Senate Democratic leader Lyndon Johnson in 1952. Thereafter,
he specialized in political advertising, worked on the 1960 Presidential
campaign, and became Special Assistant to President Johnson in 1963. It
was said of the passionate LBJ loyalist, that if the President had
dropped a hydrogen bomb on a foreign city, Valenti would have called it "urban
renewal." Valenti left the White House in 1966 to become the third President
of the Motion Picture Association of America, serving in that role until his
2004 retirement. He played a key role in developing the rating system, and
was the seventh-highest paid executive of a US trade association ($1.35 million
per year). Normal mailing folds. Tape on corners. Fine
condition.
